For the given reaction, the experimental rate law is, Rate =\mathrm{K}\mathrm{[\mathrm{A}]^2[\mathrm{~B}]^1}  When the concentration of ' A ' is tripled (3 A) and ' B ' is kept constant,
Rate  \mathrm{=K[3 A]^2[B]^1=9 K[A]^2[B]} 
Rate  \mathrm{=9 \times \mathrm{K}[\mathrm{A}]^2[\mathrm{~B}]} Thus, the rate of reaction is increased by 9 times.
